Introduction
This Privacy Policy explains how PrepHQPro operates PrepHQ, an affiliate-supported review and comparison site. It describes what information may be collected when visitors use the site, how that information may be used, and the choices available to users. This policy covers the public website, related contact forms, and any tracking technologies used to measure page performance or referral activity. Because online tracking and advertising systems change over time, some practices may vary by device, browser settings, or user preferences.
Information We Collect
PrepHQ may collect information that visitors provide directly, as well as technical data collected automatically. This can include contact form submissions, email correspondence, cookies, analytics events, referrer data, device and browser information, and advertising click identifiers such as gclid, msclkid, wbraid, and gbraid. Some data may be gathered through page tags or embedded scripts that help determine whether a visit originated from an ad, affiliate link, or organic source. The site does not typically ask for sensitive personal information, but users should avoid submitting anything unnecessary through forms or email.
- Contact details and message content submitted through forms or email
- Cookie identifiers and analytics data
- Referrer URLs and page navigation data
- Device type, browser type, IP address, and approximate location derived from network data
- Ad-platform click IDs and related conversion data
How We Use Information
Information is used for site analytics, conversion tracking, fraud prevention, troubleshooting, and responding to contact requests. In practice, this may help PrepHQ understand which pages receive traffic, whether affiliate links or paid campaigns lead to downstream actions, and whether a message requires a reply. Some customer reviews describe smoother site experiences when analytics are enabled, but results vary based on browser settings, ad blockers, and platform changes. Personal data is not sold for direct access to the site’s content, though advertising and affiliate relationships may create disclosures that appear alongside editorial content.
Third Parties
PrepHQ may share limited information with service providers and marketing partners that support the site’s operations. These parties may include Google Ads, Microsoft Ads, affiliate networks such as MaxBounty, DFO Performance, ClickBank, MaxWeb, and BuyGoods, along with the hosting provider and email provider used to run the website and receive messages. Each third party may process data under its own terms and privacy practices, which can differ from this policy. Some customer reviews describe useful attribution and reporting from these platforms, but results vary based on user consent settings and the third party’s own systems.

Cookies & Similar Technologies
PrepHQ uses cookies and similar technologies to recognize returning visitors, measure page performance, and support ad and affiliate attribution. These technologies may store session identifiers, preferences, or signals that help distinguish one visit from another. Visitors can usually manage cookies through browser settings or device controls, and some ad platforms also offer opt-out tools. Blocking cookies may reduce tracking and can affect how certain pages function, so individual experiences may differ depending on the settings chosen.
Your Rights
Depending on location, users may have rights to access, correct, delete, or limit the use of personal information. Where GDPR applies, individuals may request access, portability, restriction, objection, or deletion in accordance with local law. Where CCPA or similar laws apply, users may request notice of data practices, deletion where required, and opt-out of targeted advertising or certain data sharing. PrepHQ will make reasonable efforts to respond to valid requests, but the available rights and timing of any response may vary based on legal obligations and the nature of the request.
Data Retention
Information is retained only for as long as reasonably needed to operate the site, maintain records, troubleshoot issues, meet legal obligations, and support analytics or attribution. Retention periods may differ by data type. For example, contact messages may be kept long enough to resolve the inquiry and preserve a record of the interaction, while analytics and advertising data may be retained according to the relevant platform settings or internal business needs. When data is no longer needed, it may be deleted, anonymized, or archived in a manner that limits further use.
Contact for Privacy Requests
For privacy questions or requests, contact the site by email at support@prephqpro.com. Requests should describe the concern clearly and include enough detail to locate the relevant records. If a mailing address is supplied in the future, it can be added here for formal correspondence. At present, email is the primary privacy contact method for PrepHQPro.
